Chapter 100 - Chapter 100: Battle with the Magma Octopus

"I'm gonna pass out!"

Ethan was on the verge of collapsing.

And just at this moment, Ethan suddenly noticed the snow monster's belly that had been sliced open.

A baby is safest inside its mother's belly, so would being inside the snow monster's belly also be the safest place?

With no time to think about it anymore, without another word, Ethan ran straight to the snow monster's corpse and lifted open its belly, then forcibly stuffed himself inside.

'Damn it!'

'So tight, this is way too tight!'

After finally hiding inside the snow monster's belly, Ethan hurriedly pulled the belly skin tight, then used the soft flesh inside the snow monster's stomach to firmly plug his ears.

Shnnnn!

A strange sound, like the kind you only hear during tinnitus, rang out at the exact moment Ethan finished hiding. The sound wasn't loud, and it wasn't noisy either, but it felt like it could drill straight into your brain, constantly stimulating your ears and heart.

Headache, at this moment, Ethan truly felt like his head was about to explode.

Listening to that sound wave for too long was like fingernails scraping a blackboard, like glass scraping against glass, like a metal window dragging across the ground. It made your scalp go numb.

"AHHHH!"

Ethan couldn't take it anymore and let out a miserable scream.

He even felt as if something sticky was flowing out of his nose.

Luckily, that sound finally stopped at the very instant he was about to give up.

Only then did Ethan hurriedly crawl out of the snow monster's belly, gulping down air. Not only was there no air inside the snow monster's stomach, it was also filled with a fishy stench.

And when Ethan crawled out of the snow monster's belly, he realized that the snow monster's entire head had actually exploded.

'Was it caused by that sonic attack just now?'

Ethan was stunned on the spot.

This sonic attack was actually that fierce. It even managed to blow up a snow monster that was already dead.

Luckily, he had hidden inside the snow monster's belly one second before the sonic attack went off.

If he had been even a few seconds slower, just thinking about it made Ethan break out in a cold sweat.

After Ethan collected the snow monster's drops, the snow monster's corpse on the ground was quickly cleaned up completely, as if it had never existed at all.

After packing up his loot, Ethan sat on the spot and began preparing things to deal with the magma octopus outside.

Originally, he had thought that he could rely on these caves to avoid the attacks of that perverted takoyaki.

Until the magma octopus used the Helpless Rage skill.

Only then did Ethan understand, hiding was a dead end.

If he wanted to walk out of here alive, the only way was to defeat that hundred-meter-tall magma octopus.

In this godforsaken place, he naturally couldn't expect Ultraman to come save him.

So Ethan could only rely on himself.

Just as he finished preparing.

[!!!]

Those damn exclamation marks that filled the sky appeared again.

[The magma octopus is accumulating rage, preparing to release a second wave of Helpless Rage. Please escape the attack range as soon as possible!]

[Countdown: 04:55]

A little over four minutes left.

But this time, Ethan already had no way out, because the snow monster's corpse had already been dismantled by him.

Even if he wanted to hide, there was absolutely nowhere he could hide.

Ethan's only way out came down to a single word.

That was…

Fight!

Clutching the prepared capsule tightly in his hand, Ethan walked toward the outside of the cave with the resolve to face death.

It took three minutes.

Only then did Ethan make his way out of the maze-like caves and reach the surface.

At this moment, he happened to be facing away from the magma octopus, while the magma octopus kept sucking in the surrounding air, inflating itself until it looked like a hot-air balloon.

As its body expanded without limit, its several tentacles became shorter.

This is why a fat guys' little brother becomes shorter.

Actually, it's not that the little brother gets shorter. It's just that there's too much fat covering it, so visually it looks shorter.

The magma octopus kept inhaling, while also shaking its short little tentacles. A great battle could break out at any moment.

Ethan sneaked around from behind a rock to the front of the magma octopus.

Its round suction-cup mouth was still continuously inhaling.

Because its suction force was astonishing,

the surrounding rocks, and even some snow and little chunks of ice and such, were all being sucked straight into the magma octopus's belly.

Ethan glanced at the compressor capsule in his hand, and the corner of his mouth revealed a faint smile.

He gently loosened his fingers just like that, the light capsule was immediately sucked over by the takoyaki's massive suction force.

Just as the capsule was about to enter the magma octopus's mouth,

Ethan jumped out.

And released a "Fireball Jutsu" at the takoyaki.

BOOM!

After three rounds of casting practice by Ethan,

this fireball was finally a little bit bigger than the previous two times. It looked about the size of a ping-pong ball.

But the speed was still just as slow.

And it was still drifting up and down lazily, looking like it had zero attack power.

The magma octopus shot Ethan a sideways glance.

That faint look of contempt in its eyes—

(ಡ◎ಡ)

It didn't take this 'huge' fireball seriously at all.

After all, when it usually spits saliva, it's probably much bigger than this fireball, so it didn't pay any attention to Ethan's attack.

It just continued to suck in air with all its might, seemingly planning to use a single attack to directly send this hateful human in front of it, Straight to heaven.

Suck!

Originally, Ethan's fireball was flying extremely slowly.

To fly from Ethan to the magma octopus's mouth would have taken at least two minutes.

But at this moment, the magma octopus gave it a boost, directly sucking the fireball toward its mouth. The fireball's speed instantly shot up by a thousand percent.

Whoosh!!

The Fireball Jutsu finally flew into the magma octopus's mouth.

Seeing this, Ethan finally knew the timing had arrived. He immediately jumped into a nearby cave and, without another word, sprinted like crazy.

However, before he could even run a few steps, an earth-shaking explosion sounded behind him.

BOOM!
